Gabe turned 2!

I'm a couple of days late posting about Gabe's birthday. Probably because it was so much excitement that I needed a couple of days to recover.  No, not really, but it was fun!  Gabe and I drove up to Salt Lake to have lunch with her daddy at a really yummy Belgian restaurant.  Then Gabe, in true 2 year old fashion, had a couple of melt downs during the afternoon.  And finally we had our families join us for some cake and ice cream.  Gabe has done something to my camera so that none of the still pictures that I took are there but I do have some videos to share.  But first, here are some things about our little Gabriele at age 2...


Loves:
Mommy and Daddy
Her dogs
Uncle "D"
Toy Story 3
Trains
Animals
Water
Her baby dolls
Wearing boots
Going bye-bye

Things she can say:
All 3 of her dogs (She has said Castle's name but prefers "Good Boy" which sounds more like "Buh-boi")
Water
Outside Brrr
Can do many animal sounds
Blue, yellow
*These are just some of the newer ones.  She has a pretty impressive vocabulary but she is just starting to put two words together.  And try to get a whole idea across rather than just a word.

Favorite songs:
Baby Bumble Bee
5 monkeys swinging in a tree
"Low" by Flo Rida - the clean version.  (I'm a little embarrassed about this one but it is so cute to watch her dance to it!)

 Isn't it cute how embarrassed she gets over the attention?

In this one the only thing you'll hear her say is "Thank you" to Uncle D for handing her the train.  She has been very good with her Thank You's from very early on.

We sure love our little miss Gabe and love to see her develop her personality and be able to express herself.  We are excited to see what the next year holds for her!
